This simple, thoughtfully crafted oil blend combines the restorative power of fish oil and celery seed oil with the calming influence of essential oils—bergamot and lavender—anchored in nourishing coconut oil. Designed to support both physical comfort and emotional well-being, this remedy offers a holistic approach to managing joint discomfort, inflammation, anxiety, and cravings—all in one soothing formula.
The Healing Power of Each Ingredient
Each component in this blend is chosen not just for its individual benefits, but for how it works in harmony with the others:
Fish Oil (1 tablespoon)
Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fish oil is widely recognized for its potent anti-inflammatory properties. It helps ease joint pain, supports mobility, and has been shown to reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety.
Celery Seed Oil (1 tablespoon)
Known for its ability to help regulate uric acid levels, celery seed oil plays a key role in reducing inflammation—especially beneficial for those dealing with gout or arthritis-related joint issues.
Bergamot Essential Oil (3–4 drops)
This citrusy, uplifting oil is prized in aromatherapy for its ability to calm nervous tension, reduce cortisol (the stress hormone), and gently curb emotional eating or sugar cravings.
Lavender Essential Oil (3–4 drops)
A cornerstone of natural relaxation, lavender soothes the nervous system, promotes restful sleep, and enhances emotional balance—making it ideal for managing anxiety and supporting overall mental clarity.
Coconut Oil (1 tablespoon)
Acts as a natural carrier oil, helping the other oils absorb smoothly into the skin. It also moisturizes and protects, making the blend ideal for topical application without leaving a greasy residue.
How to Make the Soothing Oil Blend
Creating this therapeutic oil takes only minutes and requires no special equipment—just a clean glass container and precise measurements for optimal results.
Step 1: Combine the Base Oils
In a small glass bowl or jar:
Pour in 1 tablespoon of fish oil and 1 tablespoon of celery seed oil.
Measure carefully to maintain the proper balance of anti-inflammatory and joint-supporting compounds.
These foundational oils work together to target internal inflammation and promote joint health while laying the groundwork for enhanced mental focus and calm.
Step 2: Add the Essential Oils
Add 3–4 drops of bergamot essential oil. Its bright, citrusy aroma uplifts the spirit while gently easing anxiety and emotional cravings.
Follow with 3–4 drops of lavender essential oil. Its deeply relaxing scent complements bergamot, deepening the sense of peace and promoting emotional stability.
✅ Note: Essential oils are highly concentrated—do not exceed recommended drops unless advised by a qualified practitioner.
Step 3: Incorporate the Carrier Oil
Pour in 1 tablespoon of coconut oil.
This binds the mixture together, ensures even dispersion, and makes the blend safe and effective for skin application.
Coconut oil also enhances absorption, turning your blend into a luxurious massage oil or calming body lotion.
Step 4: Mix Thoroughly
Stir gently with a glass rod or swish the closed jar in circular motions until all ingredients are fully blended.
Even mixing ensures every drop delivers a consistent dose of each oil’s therapeutic properties.
Step 5: Store Properly
Transfer the finished blend into a dark glass bottle or jar with a tight lid.
Store in a cool, dark place—away from sunlight and heat—to preserve potency and extend shelf life.
✅ Shelf Life: Up to 6 months when stored properly.
How to Use Your Healing Oil Blend

Use after a shower or bath to moisturize and relax.
The gentle fragrance lingers subtly on the skin, offering ongoing emotional support.
Tips for Best Results
Choose High-Quality Oils
Opt for organic, cold-pressed, and sustainably sourced oils whenever possible. Purity matters—especially when using them therapeutically.
Adjust for Scent & Sensitivity
If the aroma feels too strong, reduce essential oil drops. If too mild, add one more drop of either bergamot or lavender—adjust to your preference.
Patch Test First
Apply a small amount to your inner wrist and wait 24 hours to check for skin sensitivity or allergic reaction—especially if you have sensitive skin.
Dilute Further if Needed
For extra-sensitive skin, increase the amount of coconut oil to dilute the essential oils further while preserving benefits.
Start Small
If you’re new to essential oils, begin with fewer drops and observe how your body responds before increasing.
Be Consistent
Like most natural remedies, results build over time. Daily use enhances long-term benefits—especially when paired with good nutrition, hydration, and movement.
Customize Your Blend
Everyone’s body is different. Feel free to experiment: try adding a drop of frankincense for deeper grounding or chamomile for extra calm.
